After an incredible Snowball last year, we are delighted to announce that the Snowball is returning this December, and it’s set to be bigger and better than ever! 

The evening will be a Black Tie & Evening Dress affair, so come and join us for a night of Christmas celebration with players past & present, coaches, families, sponsors, and the wider GHA community, all coming together in support of rugby development here at the club.
